An important factor behind lowering CO2 emissions from our Vinga vessels by 55 percent is the focus on energy savings. In this film we show how we designed the vessels and optimized all onboard equipment.
A balanced share of women and men in crews is an important factor for everyone’s well-being on board. Furetank has actively strived to attract skilled female sailors for many years: an effort which has paid off in many respects.
Liquefied biogas is one of the keys to fossil-free shipping – but lack of supply is a major issue. The Swedish shipping company Furetank has signed a letter of intent with Eskilstuna Biogas, enabling the development of a new biogas plant producing around 5,000 tonnes of LBG annually.
Flytande biogas är en av nycklarna till framtidens fossilfria sjöfart – men bristande tillgång är ett stort problem. Nu skriver Donsörederiet Furetank och Eskilstuna Biogas en avsiktsförklaring som gör det möjligt att bygga en ny anläggning som producerar runt 5 000 ton flytande biogas årligen.
Furetank has signed a contract for a new dual-fuel tanker. It will become number nine in the Vinga series of globally top-performing sister vessels when it comes to energy efficiency and climate footprint.
The right vessel in the right location at the right time: flexibility and reliability are key parts of Furetank's services. In this film we invite you to our chartering department.
In the striving for zero climate impact, it is impossible to eliminate all emissions at once. With the new Vinga vessel series, Furetank has more than halved CO2 emissions. Now the company offsets the rest of their impact through certified carbon credits, all the way down to zero for 2021.
With solar panels and geothermal heating we reduce the HQ’s annual use of purchased energy by 80% and lower our CO2 emissions by 26 tonnes.

När Furetanks senaste nybygge Fure Viten lämnar varvet i Yangzhou, Kina, är fartyget världsbäst i sin storlek när det gäller FN:s klimatmål för sjöfarten. Tack vare gasdrift och en unik kombination av bränslebesparande lösningar kommer man ner i rekordlåga 4,65 poäng på EEDI-skalan. Därmed når Furetanks nya fartygsserie utsläppsmålen för 2050 redan idag.
When Furetank’s new vessel Fure Viten leaves the shipyard, it is best in class globally when it comes to the UN climate goals for shipping. Thanks to gas propulsion and a unique combination of fuel-saving solutions, it reaches a very low EEDI value of 4.65. This means that Furetank’s new vessel series today already meets the emission targets for 2050.
Embark on the maiden voyage of Fure Viten with us! Through a diary of photos, films and text updates, the crew will bring us along on the entire journey from the shipyard in China to Europe in this blog post.
